Demographic Changes in Poland – The Regional Dimension
PublicationThe article notes that the ageing process does not occur uniformly across all Polish regions, i.e. at the same pace and with the same intensity. The results of studies indicating the regions being most vulnerable to the ageing of the regional community and the negative consequences of this process in the next two decades are presented.

Glass-ceramic joining of Fe22Cr porous alloy to Crofer22APU: interfacial issues and mechanical properties
PublicationThis work deals with the joining of porous Fe22Cr ferritic stainless steel to a dense Crofer22APU plate by using a silica-based, Ba-containing glass-ceramic. The chemical and interfacial stability and the mechanical properties of the joints were evaluated before and after thermal ageing at 700 ◦C for 500hrs. The sintering behaviour of the glass was assessed by using heating stage microscopy (HSM) to study the influence of a porous...

Problems of varistor quality assessment during exploitation
PublicationVaristors are commonly used elements which protect power supply networks against high-voltage surges or lightning. Therefore, quality and endurance of these elements is important to avoid losses when an expensive laboratory equipment would not be protected from random overvoltages. Additionally, excessive leakage currents generate serious costs due to high energy consumption. The paper presents shortly properties of varistors that...

Work–life balance: Does age matter?
PublicationWork-life balance is a priority of EU policies but at the same time demographic change affects the labour market. Employers have to deal with the ageing of their employees and adjust human resource management to maintain their competitiveness. The purpose of the article is to answer research questions: whether the age of workers determines their assessment of the work-life balance, and whether there is a relationship between the...

Modelling of the viscoelastic properties of the technical fabric VALMEX
PublicationThe analysis of the Burgers model used for the constitutive description of the technical fabric VALMEX vis-coelastic behavior is presented. It has revealed that the correctness of the identification depends strongly on the level of the immediate strain taken for calculations. Moreover, it has been proven that the Burgers model can be used for modelling of the viscoelastic properties of the polyester reinforced PVC coated VALMEX...

Model of noise sources in supercapacitors
PublicationThe paper presents detailed model of noise sources in supercapacitors. Noise phenomena observed in supercapacitors may be used as a diagnostic tool for assessment of supercapacitor quality or degradation mechanisms (e.g. corrosion of the electrodes or cloggin g up the pores) during ageing. Therefore, it is important to consider where noise is generated. The equivalent circuit of noise sources existing...

Przedsiębiorcy 55+, czy wiek ma znaczenie?
PublicationZnaczenie przedsiębiorczości 55+ w ostatnim okresie rośnie, między innymi w związku ze zmianami demograficznymi i starzeniem się społeczeństwa w większości krajów europejskich. Nie bez znaczenia jest także fakt, że starsi ludzie zaczynają wierzyć, że mogą uczestniczyć w rynku pracy, zarówno po stronie zatrudnianych jak i zatrudniających. Stąd też liczba nowych firm, tworzonych przez osoby starsze wzrasta, a starsi właściciele firm...

Human carnosinases: A brief history, medicinal relevance, and in silico analyses
PublicationCarnosine, an endogenous dipeptide, has been found to have a plethora of medicinal properties, such as antioxidant, antiageing, and chelating effects, but with one downside: a short half-life. Carnosinases and two hydrolytic enzymes, which remain enigmatic, are responsible for these features. Hence, here we emphasize why research is valuable for better understanding crucial concepts like ageing, neurodegradation, and cancerogenesis,...

Depressive symptoms in elderly people participating in University of the Third Age and residents of Nursing Homes: The role of optimism and acceptance of passing
PublicationThe elderly age group needs particular support in preventing development of depressive symptoms, among others, due to the prospect of passing. This group is heterogenous in terms of characteristics of ways of spending leisure time, which, as an important aspect of everyday life affecting the quality of interpersonal relationships and well-being, might be related to the level of their depressive symptoms. The aim of this study...
